What is 4.429 percent of 52.65 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 52.65 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 52.65 is 100%, so we can write it down as 52.65=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.429% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.429%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 52.65=100%
2) x=4.429%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
52.65/x=100%/4.429%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 4.429% of 52.65

52.65/x=100/4.429
(52.65/x)*x=(100/4.429)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
52.65=22.578460149018*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (22.578460149018) to get x
52.65/22.578460149018=x
2.3318685=x
x=2.3318685

now we have:
4.429% of 52.65=2.3318685
